Originally built as Antibes in 1973 73’ long Trying to find out when the cockpit was added.
We looked at a bunch of burgers, browards and Hatts over the past 3 years and nothing felt right until I got on this one. It has the walk around...
Thanks for the detailed info rtrafford and Pascall. It always takes my brain a bit to shift into the electrical mindset. I'm very visual so I...
Ok, so maybe a dumb question, but If I change out alternators, convert the starters, add in some 12volt batteries, new cabling in the ER, add a...
To get this going in the 12v/24v direction as you outlined, what do think the cost would be to get set up with starters/alternators, a temp panel...
I’ve been considering this change, but how would this affect the 32v house panel and everything it feeds?
Yes, the cockpit was added by Burger. According to the design drawings that I discovered on the boat, it’s a 6 foot extension +- that was added....
Figured I would start a new thread to highlight progress on our refit of the 1973 Antilles. Just purchased the boat about a month ago down in FL....
Sure did. Ripping most of it out in a couple weeks.
Will do. Heading back down to Panama City in two weeks to see how Miller is doing on some of it and I'm going to start cleaning out 40 years of...
We just moved the boat to Miller Marine and had it hauled out for a bunch of work. The battery replacement and overcharging is on the list of...
The pump system is in working order, the toilets themselves are very old and some of the seals and foot pedals aren’t functioning. I’m not...
Looking for advice on what manufacturers are out there still making 32vdc heads compatible with the vacuflush system. I have several to replace...
RTrafford - how long have you had those seals on the boat? I know we have similar hulls so I’m inclined to lean with what is working for you.
Heading down to Panama City Monday to move the boat to Miller Marine for haulout and some bottom work. I’m going to have new shaft seals put on...
This is a very unsettling trend. Especially as employees are gaining more leverage in the employee/employer dynamic nowadays. People who will...
I will check out Marine Maintenance. We are going to have the bottom done, new shaft seals, and a handful of other things done while it’s in...
Yes, in my researching I am seeing a lot of folks trying out the golf cart batteries, but I’m not sold on that yet. I would love to hear from...
Good afternoon all, It looks like we will be closing on the 80’ Burger in the coming weeks, so I’m whittling my refit list down to the priorities...
that is exactly what we are leaning towards right now. Rather than have a couple of holes in the boat for what is effectively a useless stab...
